Taming tube currents in a Mak

Hi all,
Have just been reading up on tube currents in Mak scopes and where they emanate from, and ways people go about to reduce them for faster usage.
It seems the easiest way to reduce currents is to insulate the tube. Has anyone tried insulating the rear of the primary as well as the dew shield? Have you tried different types of insulation?
A link to one of the threads.
